YOLO You are hyped when someone mention microservices? Look no further Microblog is the first blog in Lotus Framework - EVER!
The app is created to demo the modularity of Lotus. It consists of 3 apps:
- admin - web frontend for administration
- web - web frontend for public
- api - web api
Run ./setup.sh
To start the server:
bundle exec lotus server
Then you could browse the site with 0.0.0.0:2300
The admin page is at /admin and the default username/password is "admin/password". You can change
password to what you like by modifying ADMIN_PASSWORD variable in config/env.development.
If you are interested in Web API, please look into apps/api/v1.
You can do API call with curl: curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" http://0.0.0.0:2300/api/v1/posts or curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" http://0.0.0.0:2300/api/v1/posts/:id
To run tests:
bundle exec rake spec
Set up Heroku:
heroku create
Set up DB URL by getting the URL with:
heroku config | grep HEROKU_POSTGRESQL
You should get something like HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_COLOR, which value is used to set DB URI:
heroku config:set MICROBLOG_DATABASE_URL="postgres://something:[email protected]:5432/something"
Then run
heroku run rake db:migrate
heroku run rake db:seed
Last step is to set admin password:
heroku config:set ADMIN_PASSWORD="password"
Deploy with:
git push heroku master
Once done, try to the deployed app with:
heroku open
- Great thanks to Luca Guidi for creating Lotus Framework

- Add support for migration generator / schema for Lotus Framework
- Add pagination
- Use named routes for Admin templates/forms (must be fixed in Lotus core)
